Step aboard the haunted decks of the Ocean King, once a proud Indiaman and now reduced to a coal-carrying collier. In W. Clark Russell's chilling maritime tale, second mate Mr. Green recalls the ship's fall from luxury to decay-and the ghostly presence said to stalk her rigging and forepeak. From whispered voices calling sailors by name, to phantom figures glimpsed aloft under the red moon, the voyage grows darker with every passing night. Blurring the line between superstition and ventriloquism, A Bewitched Ship captures both the grandeur of a vessel's past and the eerie fate that clings to ships long at sea. A gripping sea ghost story from one of the Victorian era's most celebrated nautical novelists.
